De Saint Gall's iconic champagne, the 'Orpale' cuvée is made exclusively of Chardonnay from four villages in the Côte des Blancs classified as 'Grand Cru': Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Cramant, Avize and Oger. The 2012 vintage is dressed in a sober, elegant and environmentally friendly box. A complex and elegant blanc de blancs. It rests on the lees for about 144 months before disgorging. A brilliant golden wine with a fine perlage that opens on notes of citrus, candied lemon and yellow fruits and then evolves into smoky notes of white tobacco and toasted nuts. Fresh and persistent, it is a Champagne capable of staying etched in the memory. Naturally it will have a special place on the table, served during aperitifs or gourmet dishes.
